‘Charlie Chaplin Fans’. I like and agree with your comments regarding the light. The angle gives the impression you’re looking at them from slightly below. I’ve also noticed the very large bows in girls’ hair on other covers from the ’10s. It’s one of those stand-out things exclusive to that time period, apparently.

‘Asleep at the Theater’ is another beautiful cover with an unusual angle.

Yep, Pops looks like he’s having more fun than a guy ought to have. Or maybe more fun than he’s EVER had, especially seeing the look on the Missus’ face. I’d say if he keeps grinning like that, he’s in trouble, big-time. Love these covers!
